What about the missing options:

Michael Boulding

Joey G (even if it was a loan)

Also Mika Aarilto? Robert Olejnik? and wasn’t there some Belgian as well.

From the choice its Ronny J for me, though I think DLC, Crouch, Allback, and even Leonhardsen were just about ok signings, certainly no worse than the previous incumbrant, but no where as good as DOLs three masterstrokes. I ain’t DOLs biggest fan, but he has to have been the best buyer in the transfer market this season by a long way.

In defence of GT (puts hard hat on), his main contribution the second time around has to be the reintroduction of Gareth Barry and also bringing Thomas Hitzslberger. Give hime credit for that. If JG had stayed they would have both left, and I think they have been two of the best players at Villa and part of the skelton for the Villa side for the future. Pity he couldn’t get half the other players to play?

Didn’t Taylor also have to sign for the manure for Bodymoor training ground!?

What about Thomas Hitzlsperger?
